Kenyon Ziehl has been appointed Zimbabwe's convener of selectors. He will head a panel that includes national coach Dav Whatmore, assistant coach Douglas Hondo and captain Elton Chigumbura.
Ziehl, 52, has played two first-class matches, one List A game, and was part of a Zimbabwe A team as well. Although he did not play international cricket, a ZC release said he did represent Zimbabwe in rugby. He has previous experience as a selector, having led the panel from 2007 to 2009. He has also had a good reputation as the CEO of the Rhinos franchise.
"It is an honour and a privilege to be appointed once again as convener. I will carry on the good work my colleague Givemore [Makhoni] has been doing because it is vital that as the national selection panel, we do our best to ensure a positive team performance," Ziehl said.
His predecessor Givemore Makhoni has been named the new director for development and club cricket.
